Steven Hawkins annual lecture
Annual Stephen Hawking MND Lecture – Planning ahead of effective person-centred care.
Advance Care Planning what you need to know, and how to put it into practice.
Date: 21 November 2023
Time: 18.00-20.00
Event type: Fully virtual
The lecture will be led by Professor Bee Wee CBE. Bee was National Clinical Director for Palliative and End of Life Care, NHS England from 2013 – 2023.
This year’s event will explore good advance care planning for people living with MND and its positive impact for the patient and for care. Professor Wee will give practical examples of how professionals can advance care planning in their own environment to ensure patient centred care and outline emergent practice. Although the lecture focusses on MND much of the content will be applicable to many other conditions in which advance care planning is key.
The lecture is suitable for all health and social care professionals and members of the public with an interest in MND. For more information and to register, please click here.
